Toys We Love!
26
items These are toys that we love and my kids keep going back to. My oldest is 9 and so we’ve had our fair share of toys that are played with a few times and then thrown in the corner. This list is of toys that will NOT end up in a corner.
It is a clean up game afterwards with all the balls but it’s so fun! It’s like an air powered marble run. All of my kids love it!
Air-Powered STEM Building Toy
My kids from 1 years old to 9 years old love this. They probably use the slide function the most but also use it as a bridge. Or they call it a “stage” and give concerts in our living room haha.
Tiny Land® 7-in-1 Rainbow Climbing Set
Kitchens have been a huge hit with all of my kids. We have been through a few kitchens by now. This kitchen is the best because of all of the storage and the baskets so it helps keep things organized.
Tiny Land® Wooden Play Kitchen with Storage
My older 2 love these. They design their own dresses using multiple colors and silks. They use them as baby blankets, curtains in their doll houses, an ocean, etc. So many creative ways to use them.
Mini Solid Color Playsilks
We have some butterfly wings as well as the silks attached to the sticks. They’re so fun for dressing up and have held up well!
Waldorf Inspired Silk Kids Costumes
I have neurotypical kids but they both love these swings. Even my younger one will put his arms through and swing around. They’ve figured out how to do tricks and fun things with them too.
Double Layer Sensory Swing
We’ve had 2 Kidcraft dollhouses now and love both! This one is so fun with many rooms and accessories for them to play with.
KidKraft Celeste Mansion Dollhouse
We LOVE Warmies in this house. They have lavender scent and also some unscented. The scent does fade after while so if you don’t love lavender, don’t let that deter you. We have so many of them!!
Warmies
This is the perfect gift for about 18 months+. Even my 5 year old still fits and drives ours around!
Foot to Floor Riding Toys for Toddlers by Little Tikes
We also love this kitchen! A great option if you have a good corner to put it in.
KidKraft Ultimate Corner Wooden Play Kitchen with Lights & Sounds
Not technically a toy, but it’s in our playroom. We’ve had this for years and it’s still amazing. The cover washes well and it’s so easy to fluff up and doesn’t lose shape.
REPREVE® Bean Bag
We have an 8 cube and a 9 cube. Awesome storage for toys, puzzles, games, etc.
13'' 8 Cube Organizer
These fit in the 13” cube storage. I like these better than the fabric ones. My kids end up bending the fabric ones.
Wave XL Curved Storage Bin
All of my kids have loved this! And I love being able to give them a small broom so they don’t bang up my walls trying to handle our normal size one haha
Melissa & Doug Cleaning Set
My kids have all loved playing with doctor sets. Most come with bandages that don’t fit adults. This is such a fun option for us adults to have “boo boos” that need fixing.
Melissa & Doug Boo-Boos & Bandages Reusable First Aid Pretend Play Set: Creativity Focus with Medical Accessories
This ice cream set is so fun for everyone and has lasted us years of play!
Melissa & Doug Scoop & Serve Ice Cream Set
Going along with playing doctor, my kids love playing eye doctor. They get to play and act out what actually happens when they go to the eye doctor.
Melissa & Doug Fun Frames Eye Exam Pretend Play Set
Love these metal and wood utensils. Much better than some plastic ones we have had in the past. I also love that you can store it in the container on their little kitchen counter.

My girls have both loved doing pretend makeup on each other as well as me. It’s so fun and no mess!

We love seeing who can get the most animals the fastest!
Melissa & Doug Magnetic Wooden Fishing Game and Puzzle
Babies are a big hit in our house and we love having a little cradle for them.
Melissa & Doug Wooden Play Cradle for Dolls & Stuffed Animals
We love playing doctor to animals too. This is a great set and it’s nice to keep our “people” doctor stuff and veterinary stuff separate.
Battat Pretend Play Vet Kit - 16 Pieces
My kids love driving this through the house. They’ll put their Barbie’s, little people, stuffies, monster trucks, etc in there and run them around the house!
DRIVEN by Battat RC Ambulance: Remote Control Vehicle
Such a good toy for learning how to use keys and fine motor skills.
B. toys Kids Critter Clinic
This is a fun toy and not obnoxious. My youngest loves it. So do my 5 year old and 9 year old haha.
Skip Hop “Let the Beet Drop” DJ Toy
This is awesome. You can turn the volume down as well as mute it if you get tired of it. All toys should have this option
